A couple more mods and then the full Monty Tune gets put on.

Sounds like a little 7 second button play!

The only way to launch a camaro is with no help from stability or traction control systems. I still have slight wheel spin, but can definitely leave the line quickest on my own. Just have to feel it out and plant it at the right time. The lag time from the point you lose traction to the point power is re-applied is too slow. Especially in cars that haven't had torque management deleted. 80% engine load means the throttle starts closing. No matter where you've got the pedal.

Never unwanted, maybe just not needed at that particular time, hence this little emoticon

Traction control is like a meal tray on a flight. Disengage and return to the full upright and locked position before takeoff! Simplified
